Seedless Concord Grape (Vitis vinifera 'Seedless Concord') - Description

The old favorite blue-black grape that has been around for generations, but without those pesky seeds. Concord Seedless, though similar in flavor and texture to Concord, is unrelated.

Seedless Concord Grape (Vitis vinifera 'Seedless Concord') - Planting

Soak bareroot stocks in water for several hours before planting. Dig a hole big enough to fit all the roots, and spread the roots over a small pile of loose soil in the hole. Fill the hole with soil, pack it down with a stick or your boot, and place mulch around the vine for weed and moisture control. Don't amend the planting soil with compost or mulch, because this will encourage roots to stay put, and you want them to spread! Standard spacing for grapes is 8 ft apart in a row, with multiple rows spaced 8-12 ft apart.

Seedless Concord Grape (Vitis vinifera 'Seedless Concord') - Interesting facts

Many grape vines are grafts of different varieties, one for the roots and one for the shoots. Looks for a graft union close above the crown, showing as a bulge, a difference in diameter, or a change in bark. If planting a grafted vine, the graft union must stay above the ground, or the stem graft will produce roots, thus negating the graft. Non-grafted grapes can be planted as deep as 18 inches, which improves cold-hardiness.
